I saw Crashbox as a kid and i didn't find it to be creepy i just liked it because of the claymation art style all though the dialogue at the end credits creeped me out and i don't know why.
I was obsessed with this show and it made learning a fun experience. The games were hard at times but I felt this sort of competitive energy flow through 😭
Those who have seen the show from kids and liked it are people with a lot of creativity, the show is not creepy at all is just very versatile and very active listening, so lots of people grew up with this and they learned a lot from the show. Really one of my greatest and favorite shows.
I definitely agree with you! My siblings and I never found this show as creepy/ scary. We thought the segments were funny and we actually learned a lot from it.
Thank you so much for talking about this show. Believe or not, this was one of my favorite shows when I was in elementary. Looking back at it now, it's definitely out there, but it did help me learn a lot when I was at home. Crashbox is also on HBO Max if anyone wants to watch it. Kinda dated in some aspects, but a weird hidden gem in my opinion.
@@anthonydiaz4265 SAME it was hilarious for me I loved the puppets I don’t remember to much just the music and the pirate ship segment unless I’m thinking of the wrong show
I watched this show as a kid and I LOVED it. I never found it terrifying, but I could see how other people could find it creepy. I loved "interacting" with the characters to solve problems. I definitely told my mom to keep the TV on for this show!
@@leila-tm9bh I always loved seeing the claw machine pick up the green box, and trying to guess which part of the show was it going to be, the pirate skeleton part had the same theme as Spongebob when he went to the Krusty Krab, the robots were awesome, just everything was perfect. (But I just noticed: why was Eddie Bull eaten by some animals that are herbivores?" O_O)
Yeah I hated him too. I had to close my eyes and sometimes even leave the room or try to turn down the sound because I couldn't stand seeing or hearing him.
That's probably the only thing about the show I remembered. It came across my mind a couple of weeks ago, and I kind of questioned if I actually saw it or if it was something my brain made up
I remember watching Crashbox everyday as a kid, didn't bother me besides that slob character, he legit scared me for some reason. I'm happy you covered this as not many people know about the show at all! Cool to see this nostalgic show again.
Uh, anyone who called Crashbox " weird and insanely bizarre " as a bad thing must've been extremely boring people because this show rocked. I don't know. I'd say you ran out of ideas on this one. That butterfly scene from SpongeBob was scarier than this, and it wasn't even a butterfly. It was a horse fly, and yet it stopped me from touching butterflies for years. If anything, they saved so many butterflies from having their delicate wings damaged.
This show and the butterfly scene weren’t scary to me. Frankly, any mind-rotting children’s show on Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network didn’t disturb or scare me other than Ren And Stimpy.
@@OccasionalInc23 Actually, SpongeBob had a lot of adult non-sex related jokes and references that caught anyone off guard. I'd say Ren and Stimpy was only a a stimulating because it was loud, gross, and made no sense.
Wait THAT's what the bug they used for the sound effect was? Ever since I first saw that episode when I was like 7-8, I always wondered what the bug was because it COULDN'T have been a butterfly, it's just COULDN'T.
This show was my entire childhood. I loved it so much and it was incredibly innovative and fun, but the Revolting Slob segments always made my stomach churn. I couldn't even watch it, even the mention of it was enough to get me to switch the channel. I don't know what it is about it, but the disgusting slimey imagery paired with every episode ending with him violently blowing to chunks absolutely set me off as a child to the point of me having terrible nightmares about it Edit: I remember the segment being more violent? I remember LITERAL CHUNKS of the Revolting Slob falling in front of the camera at the end after he explodes paired with like... Green goo.
Revolving slob was my favorite. I thought it was hilarious and I remember always hoping his segment was coming up. Maybe I am fucked up? Maybe I need therapy, but i have faint memories of me feeling off like 1.000000000000000000000000000 % of the time XD
As an early 2000s kid, I wasn't expecting it to be a show I had seen! I watched reruns of this at home, and they used to play it at my dentist office weirdly enough. Didn't scare me then, but I totally see how it could've freaked other kids out. I was probably too desensitized from goosebumps to care lol
I loved crashbox, I tried showing my daughter and it scared her…… that’s the moment I realized the two generations were definitely built of different stuff 😂
When I was little I thought everyone knew what this show was, I didn't realize that cable was a privilege until I got older. There's part of me that thinks that exposing kids to things that are a little dark is a good thing, but at the same time, what do I know? I can see how this could be upsetting. I will admit that the revolting slob is pushing it a bit too far lol
This was LITERALLY my favorite show as a child, but I've always been obsessed with slightly creepy aesthetics and I'm so glad someone's covering it haha
I vividly remember being upset that captain bones called me a bucket of filth for not doing to math fast enough. I'm dyscalculic, and math always was a stressor.
I LOVED this show growing up. I would watch it in elementary school and talk with friends about it. It was creepy and educational which actually gained my interest and attention. I remember learning about Jackie Robinson in the haunted mansion most vividly. And there was a detective segment too, which encouraged critical thinking! Creepy show but very unique and overall, educational! I almost forgot about this show. Thank you for reminding me :)
I have a vague memory of watching TV at a relatives house some time around 2000 on a channel we didn't get at home, and I'm fairly certain this was the show! Particularly the "Revolting Slob" character. I remember thinking his bellybutton was really gross. The rest of the show looks likes something I would have loved growing up with. I was always into twisted, spooky stuff.
I LOVED CRASHBOX! As a kid I loved watching it, and I believe it was on HBO right? My mom got HBO for a year or something to watch Trueblood and I absolutely loved whenever Crashbox came on
I remember "Crashbox"!! When my family had Comcast, I'd go watched the episodes all the time. The show never scared me, not even the "Revolting Slob". That being said, the episode where the Slob was being irritable and yelling at the viewers to get out of his house unnerved me as he had always seemed more passive before.
If you grew up with Crashbox as a kid, you're either entirely fucked up or chill and creative now lmao Edit: depressed artists rise up lmfao Edit 2: how the fuck did this comment blow up out of nowhere
I loved this show as a kid and it actually didn’t scare me as much as it helped me learn. Also i have a feeling that this show is the reason why I’m so creative and the reason i like things that are kinda weird and abstract.
Candle cove was apart of a horror channel my mom used to watch idk how no one else knows this. I don't remember the name I think it was like called channel zero. There was also a person made of teeth who would eat the nails off your fingers on that channel, I'm pretty sure you can look it up
This show was my childhood. Being able to watch a show that tested my mind instead of saying things at me was really refreshing and something a lot of kids' shows are missing.
Honestly, that precisely is what made me love the show so much. It seemed to actually get what kids liked and how to talk to them in a way that didn’t over complicate, but also didn’t treat kids like they’re brain dead. Crashbox was fun and wacky, gross, but also highly entertaining and kept my ADHD riddled self focused.
We had HBO Go at the hotel that my siblings were at, and ended up watching Crashbox. We actually fell in love with the odd/creepy vibe and the games in it. Now we're trying to make a board game about it. Also, the pirate did a couple of math problems, but mostly he did matchstick puzzles! (Those were our favorites)
Omfg, crashbox. I LOVED this show growing up! I was born in 99 so I must’ve mostly watched re-runs, but god me and my little brother ADORED this show as kids! I have faint memories of maybe some segments being a liiiiitle creepy to us…? But for the most part, we didn’t question it! My having such bad ADHD was actually really a big draw to the show, it really catered to my want to see so many different kinds of worlds and characters, and with so much stuff happening. Distraction news was actually a powerful training exercise for kid me!
I love that you say talking skeletons that decapitate themselves would have been a big nope but you also 100% strike me as the sort to have tons of Jack skelington stuff in middle school
Thank you for talking about this show, I absolutely loved this show as a kid I would watch it all the time. And no one ever knows what I'm talking about when I bring it up. Haunted house party was my favorite segment along with mugshots. I'm so glad someone is bringing the show to light again.
I was only afraid of the ramses episode of courage, the "return the slab, or suffer my curse" but that was the creepy art style of ramses and his choppy movement. Crash box wasn't remotely creepy
When I was a really young kid, I had a dream that the revolting slob saved my parents from an army of fire ants by violently vomiting on the ant hills. I didn’t like watching his segments after that dream.
This show was my favorite but I thought it was a fever dream for a while. I don't remember what the segment was called but the one that scared me the most was the snake charmer dude who asked a bunch of riddles. Along with the guy who had you do a bunch of math equations before his place blew up. He used a bunch of different objects to represent numbers though, i.e. the number of days in a month, the day Christmas falls on. or stuff along those lines.
The segment with the snake was called "Riddle snake" and the math robot was called "Psycho math"! Riddle snake was my fave for some reason, I loved the episodes that ended with that segment
I LOVED Crash Box, it seemed strange but I remember turning it on early in the morning and watching it. I loved the premises of the show, still do. The fact you played the introduction of crashbox is amazing. I love it
oh my god i actually saw this show when i was a kid. I actually liked it and i was traumatized at all lmao but i actually totally forgot that it existed until this video popped up in my recommendations. Dang i remember always watching this in the morning before i had to go to school.. Memories.
I would watch this every Sunday at my grandma’s house, she even knew the show, but not the name, and she would let me know when it was on. It never scared me, it was just creative fun
"Pinwheel" on early Nickelodeon, was a weird ass show I used to watch in daycare. I recall the author of Candle Cove said that he was inspired by the Kroft Brothers show "Lidsville".
I loved this show and wasn’t scared of it even though I first watched it when I was younger than the target audience. I used to say the revolting slob was my favorite just to joke with my mom because she was disgusted by him. I wouldn’t call the show creepy and I’d say it never bothered me but then you mentioned Eddie Bull. I couldn’t stand to watch that one until I was like 11 or 12 because it disturbed me.
Ahh, I actually LOVED this show when I was in middle school! This was so nostalgic to see, I remember staying home during the summer and binging these episodes since we had HBO on Demand. The Revolting Slob definitely made me cringe and feel a type of way, but I really loved all the others! There was one segment all about puns, I think it was some radio DJ skeleton looking character? But I remember going to school and waiting for an opportunity to unleash all those puns I learned, lmao.
Used to love crashbox so much, i look back on it on occasion and its good even still. The revolting slob was always a bit unsettling to me though. It still airs today surprisingly. Personally my favorite segment was always the barbie segment as a child lol. Haunted house party is the source of my very limited and very embarrassing knowledge of history. Good show. Can't really say i find it that scary.
DUUUUUUDE I REMEMBER WATCHING THIS. Thank you sooooo much for giving me the name of my favorite childhood TV show! I've been searching for this forever because I couldn't ever remember the name-and no one else in my family could either when I mentioned it. Gah, today is a good day. I'm so glad I recognized the slob man from my distant memories. 💀💀
crashbox was one of my favorite shows growing up for some reason and seeing people consider it creepy is just wild to me, but i see it now that someone pointed it out lol. i wouldn't say it's the creepiest kids show out there, though
I swear I’ve seen the revolving slob, I’ve never seen the show but I might be confusing him with another character. With that said he also reminds me of “the greedy” in the animated raggedy Ann musical (it’s on RUclips, go watch it).
I grew up watching Crashbox as a kid, and it definitely influenced my sense of humor and general outlook on the world. I found the intro a little creepy as a kid, but other than that I loved it. I’d say it still holds up great to this day.
I remember having some sort of recording of this when I was younger! I never got scared of any segments, don't think a lot of them were included, but I remember distraction news, cool robots to transition to other segments, and a lot of weird/gross-out humor, Something about being awarded the title "super duper pooper scooper" always stuck in my mind and I think this is where that's from! We only kept it for a few days before having to return it I think? My mom tried showing my younger sister it, but she was just bored watching it
I love crashbox! When my family was fortunate enough to have HBO family on cable, I would watch this show constantly. I always found the wacky characters and settings to be really fun and engaging, and I loved trying to guess the answers to the puzzles before my parents could. I still go back and watch it to this day
I'm 14 and when you brought up the guy eating beans till he explode I actually remember watching that back when I was younger. I only remember the fly getting to his beans not the part he goes kaboom.
Bro i freaking loved crashbox when i was a kid! I would watch it every morning with my sister who also loved the show when she was little, heck it's still one of my favorite kids show ever made because of how fun and creative it is!
I think I loved this show so much was not only the stop motion animation and creativity but the way the factory the show takes place in is disorganized but works anyway reminded me of the ispy books, I was obsessed with those at the time lol
This show was my childhood, I loved it. A little disgusting with the revolting slub, but I wasn't scared of anything in the show. When you brought it up, I remembered having a lot of fun watching it
i would watch Crashbox when I was little in my grandma's old room on her tv, just entertained by the odd characters and interesting ways to learn. a fond memory i seem to forget very easily.
I watched the crashbox reruns as a kid around 2007 and I loved it so much, it never scared me probably because I wasn't aware of how strange things were and I never looked back on how creepy it was until this video lmao
I remember asking my mom to tape every episode of Crashbox when I was younger. I'd sit down once a new one recorded and watch it, and I never wanted to delete them. I loved this show so much and honestly this show probably had a helping hand in forming my personality.
I loooooved Crashbox! I remember that the first segments were almost ALWAYS distraction news or the revolting slob. My favorite segments not mentioned here were the one with the beatnik sketch artist, ten seconds with a lot of literal puzzles, and Poop or Scoop.
i watched this as a kid and honestly loved it, i was never sacred or creeped out but the slob just grossed me out. this show slapped and i wish they made more of it 😩

I remember watching crash box all the time when I was at my grandparents house. I loved the show and it gives me some nostalgia looking back into it.
Anyone afraid of this show was probably also scared of Courage the Cowardly Dog. *Scaredy Cats* 😆😂
Actually I was scared of this show but I somehow loved courage the cowardly dog.
Facts
I was only afraid of the ramses episode of courage, the "return the slab, or suffer my curse" but that was the creepy art style of ramses and his choppy movement. Crash box wasn't remotely creepy
When I was a really young kid, I had a dream that the revolting slob saved my parents from an army of fire ants by violently vomiting on the ant hills. I didn’t like watching his segments after that dream.
This show was my favorite but I thought it was a fever dream for a while. I don't remember what the segment was called but the one that scared me the most was the snake charmer dude who asked a bunch of riddles. Along with the guy who had you do a bunch of math equations before his place blew up. He used a bunch of different objects to represent numbers though, i.e. the number of days in a month, the day Christmas falls on. or stuff along those lines.
The segment with the snake was called "Riddle snake" and the math robot was called "Psycho math"! Riddle snake was my fave for some reason, I loved the episodes that ended with that segment
You mean Psycho Math. Yeah he was off his rocker for math lol
Bro you just unlocked so many memories that I never wanted to remember 😭😭😭
I LOVED Crash Box, it seemed strange but I remember turning it on early in the morning and watching it. I loved the premises of the show, still do. The fact you played the introduction of crashbox is amazing. I love it
oh my god i actually saw this show when i was a kid. I actually liked it and i was traumatized at all lmao but i actually totally forgot that it existed until this video popped up in my recommendations. Dang i remember always watching this in the morning before i had to go to school.. Memories.
This show slapped SO HARD, I’m glad it was covered.
4:51 GEEZ. Glad I never saw THAT as a little kid, forget the skeleton, that face would've freaked me out so much dude
This show reminds me of Robot Chicken in a way lol.
I can see that!
100%
I would watch this every Sunday at my grandma’s house, she even knew the show, but not the name, and she would let me know when it was on. It never scared me, it was just creative fun
"Pinwheel" on early Nickelodeon, was a weird ass show I used to watch in daycare. I recall the author of Candle Cove said that he was inspired by the Kroft Brothers show "Lidsville".
I loved this show and wasn’t scared of it even though I first watched it when I was younger than the target audience. I used to say the revolting slob was my favorite just to joke with my mom because she was disgusted by him. I wouldn’t call the show creepy and I’d say it never bothered me but then you mentioned Eddie Bull. I couldn’t stand to watch that one until I was like 11 or 12 because it disturbed me.
Ahh, I actually LOVED this show when I was in middle school! This was so nostalgic to see, I remember staying home during the summer and binging these episodes since we had HBO on Demand. The Revolting Slob definitely made me cringe and feel a type of way, but I really loved all the others! There was one segment all about puns, I think it was some radio DJ skeleton looking character? But I remember going to school and waiting for an opportunity to unleash all those puns I learned, lmao.
Brooo, crashbox was so much fun. I liked trying to keep up with all the fun trivia they had on the show.
Used to love crashbox so much, i look back on it on occasion and its good even still. The revolting slob was always a bit unsettling to me though. It still airs today surprisingly. Personally my favorite segment was always the barbie segment as a child lol. Haunted house party is the source of my very limited and very embarrassing knowledge of history. Good show. Can't really say i find it that scary.
I loved watching Crashbox as a kid. I don't remember being put off by the animation at all. I felt so smart watching it!
Me too
I still remember Crashbox's timeslot: 11:00 on HBO Kids! I loved it more than anything! Glad you're talking about it.
That’s awesome! More people watched it than I though lol, seemed like a cool show
DUUUUUUDE I REMEMBER WATCHING THIS. Thank you sooooo much for giving me the name of my favorite childhood TV show! I've been searching for this forever because I couldn't ever remember the name-and no one else in my family could either when I mentioned it. Gah, today is a good day. I'm so glad I recognized the slob man from my distant memories. 💀💀
Very informative, I remember watching Crashbox as a kid and being invested in Candle Cove in middle school. Great connections!
Crashbox was ABSOLUTELY one of my favorites. I loved the shit out of it!!!! I remember a LOT of the segments so very very well.
crashbox was one of my favorite shows growing up for some reason and seeing people consider it creepy is just wild to me, but i see it now that someone pointed it out lol. i wouldn't say it's the creepiest kids show out there, though
I’m so glad someone is talking about this, so underrated! When I heard that intro, that nostalgia hit different
This was a forgotten memory for me, when you showed the revolting slob clips I actually got kinda nostalgic lol
Crashbox was definitely a favourite for me when I was growing up. The nostalgia factor still keeps the show enjoyable to me.
I absolutely LOVED this show when I was a kid. Me and my sister would sit for as long as we could watching this monstrosity.
Crashbox actually taught me something while i was at home every night from school, it’s weird, but the intro was so amazing.
I swear I’ve seen the revolving slob, I’ve never seen the show but I might be confusing him with another character. With that said he also reminds me of “the greedy” in the animated raggedy Ann musical (it’s on RUclips, go watch it).
I completely forgot about this show until you showed the opening. I can’t remember a lot of the segments but that opening is like a DEEP memory..
Holy shit this just unlocked a hidden memory I didn’t even know I had
This is a crazy comparison. Crashbox was awesome!!
New subscriber here 😊👋🏼 you deserve more followers love your videos!!
Hi! Welcome! thank you so much 😊 🖤 that’s so kind of you
I watched this show a lot as a kid and nearly forgot about it. Thanks for reviewing this!
Love your video's!💕
Thank you 🥺 thank you for watching!
I grew up watching Crashbox as a kid, and it definitely influenced my sense of humor and general outlook on the world. I found the intro a little creepy as a kid, but other than that I loved it. I’d say it still holds up great to this day.
I remember having some sort of recording of this when I was younger!
I never got scared of any segments, don't think a lot of them were included, but I remember distraction news, cool robots to transition to other segments, and a lot of weird/gross-out humor,
Something about being awarded the title "super duper pooper scooper" always stuck in my mind and I think this is where that's from!
We only kept it for a few days before having to return it I think?
My mom tried showing my younger sister it, but she was just bored watching it
I love crashbox! When my family was fortunate enough to have HBO family on cable, I would watch this show constantly. I always found the wacky characters and settings to be really fun and engaging, and I loved trying to guess the answers to the puzzles before my parents could. I still go back and watch it to this day
omfg you just unlocked a memory i totally forgot about I loveddd this show back then and would watch these episodes on repeat
I'm 14 and when you brought up the guy eating beans till he explode I actually remember watching that back when I was younger. I only remember the fly getting to his beans not the part he goes kaboom.
I swear I refused to watch any show other than crashbox as a kid. To this day i still love it
Bro i freaking loved crashbox when i was a kid! I would watch it every morning with my sister who also loved the show when she was little, heck it's still one of my favorite kids show ever made because of how fun and creative it is!
Bro i loved that show so much but i'm not even gonna lie- that show felt like a fever dream
I think I loved this show so much was not only the stop motion animation and creativity but the way the factory the show takes place in is disorganized but works anyway reminded me of the ispy books, I was obsessed with those at the time lol
This makes me wonder if maybe Crashbox was somebody's inspiration for the Candle Cove Creepypasta
I love your accent & personality 😍 💕
This show was my childhood, I loved it.
A little disgusting with the revolting slub, but I wasn't scared of anything in the show. When you brought it up, I remembered having a lot of fun watching it
i would watch Crashbox when I was little in my grandma's old room on her tv, just entertained by the odd characters and interesting ways to learn. a fond memory i seem to forget very easily.
I watched the crashbox reruns as a kid around 2007 and I loved it so much, it never scared me probably because I wasn't aware of how strange things were and I never looked back on how creepy it was until this video lmao
Omg you brought back some childhood memories of this show for me! I loved this show. My mom and I used to watch it together!
CRASHBOX. I finally remember it after all this time. It felt like a fever dream for the longest time. Thank you.
YOU JUST REOPENED A PART OF A MEMORY I DIDNT EVEN KNOW EXISTED. THE REVOLTING SLOB I LOVED!
if this video has ANY crashbox slander ill lose my mind
You literally unlocked a memory I didn’t even know I had.
I remember asking my mom to tape every episode of Crashbox when I was younger. I'd sit down once a new one recorded and watch it, and I never wanted to delete them. I loved this show so much and honestly this show probably had a helping hand in forming my personality.
I loooooved Crashbox! I remember that the first segments were almost ALWAYS distraction news or the revolting slob. My favorite segments not mentioned here were the one with the beatnik sketch artist, ten seconds with a lot of literal puzzles, and Poop or Scoop.
i watched this as a kid and honestly loved it, i was never sacred or creeped out but the slob just grossed me out. this show slapped and i wish they made more of it 😩
i watched crash box re-runs religiously every week omg! it was my childhood!
I loved Crashbox! I remember being devastated when I couldn’t find it on TV any more!
OMFG I WAS TRYING TO REMEMBER THIS SHOW IM SO HAPPY YOU MADE THIS
